It depends what you mean by "widespread demand". There has to be some standard, and the one we've always used is that enough people vote for parties supporting it to get an act or motion passed. IN this case, the Lib Dems are saying that they are standing on a policy of not supporting it, and will therefore not support it in parliament, although they'll be constructive if it gets a majority elsewhere. If they were to stand on a policy of opposing it and then turned round and supported it after all because it seemed popular, they'd be (quite understandably) accused of being very cynical and faithless.
